Hey, Samsung fans! Android 15 will arrive on Samsung devices later this year, but we are already hearing a lot about the One UI 7.0 update. Google could release Stable Android 15 in August and Samsung is likely to announce the One UI 7 Beta in the same month.

Samsung is internally working on the Android 15 One UI 7.0 update. The Galaxy S24 series will be the first to get it on both Beta and Stable channels. However, dozens of Galaxy devices are eligible for this major upgrade, forming a pretty big rollout later this year.

Android 15

The new OS entered Developer Preview in February and Public Beta in April. Google so far released three major Public Beta updates for Pixel devices. The fourth Beta build could be released in the coming days, with Public rollout expected in August.

Android 15 focuses on improving device performance and power efficiency. It’s also well-optimized for the artificial intelligence era. Consumers can expect faster app loading, longer battery backup, enhanced security and privacy, and core improvements at the OS level.

One UI 7

Samsung might kick off the One UI 7 Beta Program in August this year. For the Galaxy S23 series, the company released the first Beta in August 2023. We expect the same release timeframe for this year’s Beta activity, while the first batch will be of the Galaxy S24 lineup.

Beyond flagships, the Korean tech giant may expand the Beta trial to select mid-range phones. Galaxy A55, Galaxy A35, and some Galaxy M series phones may also be eligible. Like every year, One UI 7 Beta should be available in at least 7 countries including the US.

One UI 7.0

Samsung is set to hold this year’s Developer Conference on October 3. The event’s stage will be utilized to introduce new One UI 7 features and enhancements. Besides, One UI 6 Watch and Tizen OS upgrades for TVs may also be unveiled by the Korean tech giant.

One UI Beta build can be installed on your primary handset, but we prefer avoiding it. If you don’t want to counter bugs and functional errors, Beta activity isn’t for you. Consider waiting till the Stable rollout commences as Samsung will also provide new features with One UI 6.1.1.

Samsung unveiled its next-gen BioActive Sensor used in the Galaxy Watch 7 series. The new health monitoring sensor brings an advanced glycation end products (AGEs) index. It will further strengthen Samsung’s commitment to the health and wellness market.

BioActive Sensor is a wearable hardware developed by Samsung. It delivers accurate health tracking on Galaxy Watch by offering more personalized and accurate health data. The company’s press release confirms that the new smartwatches feature the next-gen BioActive sensor.

The next batch of Samsung Galaxy Watch is packed full of hardware and software upgrades. While the company is set to utilize its first 3nm Exynos W1000 chipset, the Wear OS 5 is also a big deal. It is also confirmed to power many Galaxy AI features for health monitoring.

Samsung specifically notes that the new BioActive Sensor will enable advanced predictive and preventative wellness features besides more accurate health measurements. The induction of advanced glycation end products index also empowers the next Galaxy Watch.

AGEs is an indicator of metabolic health and biological aging strongly influenced by overall lifestyle and dietary habits. It delivers a snapshot of your biological age to help you make more informed decisions about your wellness journey and work towards a healthier future.

Samsung engineers focused on three upgrades to the new BioActive Sensor: enhancing the performance of light-receiving photodiodes, adding additional colors of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and arranging them optimally across the sensor.

The new sensor features 2x performance of each photodiode. As a result, the number needed to maintain capacity decreased from eight to four. The company used the vacated space to integrate a larger number and variety of LEDs to ensure optimal performance.

Samsung’s new BioActive Sensor is packed with Blue, Yellow, Violet, and Ultraviolet LEDs. Notably, Green, Red and Infrared LEDs used in the previous iteration also increased.

This optimized structure improves accuracy and enables exceptional performance, offering more accurately measured health metrics such as heart rate, sleep quality, blood pressure, blood oxygen levels, and stress levels.
